This is THE song of the summer for me! Actually this is 'Micki's Summer of Pop Music', because I'm not normally a big pop music fan. Between Blurred Lines, Get Lucky, and Treasure, I'm really enjoying music right now.

To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1

The clock of life is wound but once and no man has the power
To know just when the hands will stop - on what day, or what hour.
Now is the only time you have, so live it with a will -
Don't wait until tomorrow - the hands may then be still.

Aerosmith "Love In An Elevator" ... I haven't heard it in who knows how long. I heard it on the radio today and now it is firmly stuck in my head.

And I learned something today that I hadn't known before ... the backing vocals on Elton John's song "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" are sung by Bruce Johnston and Carl Wilson of the Beach Boys, and Toni Tennille.

I've been Boo'd... right off the stage!

Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

"That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas

Last night it was "Thank You For the Music" from Mamma Mia ... today I'm back to Rent with "Seasons of Love". My mom and dad's cable system has a channel that is all show tunes from cast albums and movies ... which I love

I've been Boo'd... right off the stage!

Various lullabies - spent the afternoon recording them for my newest "nephew" in Boston. If you're ever having trouble sleeping, I can put anyone to sleep - little Calvin went out like a light during song #1! Not even the sirens going by (major car accident nearby we found out) woke him up!

"Black or White" - Michael Jackson ... I heard it on the radio today and now it's playing in my head.

I've been Boo'd... right off the stage!

This past Thursday, my supervisor came over and told me the location for our 2:00 meeting was changed so we walked together to the other building. As it turned out, the meeting was actually my surprise retirement party. As I went into the conference room, all of my co-workers started singing "Happy Trails to You" from the old Roy Rogers and Dale Evans show. It took a moment or two to sink in but when it did, I couldn't help but think - what a perfect song for a retiree. Since then that song is firmly stuck in my mind constantly, especially around the office.

I was thinking of something I did - that I probably shouldn't have - and I was applying this song title to myself. Now it won't go away............
